Here's an updated x86 machine check 32bit<->64bit merge series. It allows to use the much superior (ok I am biased...) 64bit machine check code on 32bit systems too. It also contains the basic machine check injector code because that was needed for testing. I had this in the original mce patchkit, but dropped it later, but maintainers requested to redo it. This was available for some time on my git tree on kernel.org, but I'm reposting it now for final merge. This is based on the mce3 branch in git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ak/linux-mce-2.6.git which is a version of x86/mce2 branch from tip that actually compiles/works and is rebased on 2.6.30rc7. This is all ready to merge. Merging would be: Pull in mce3 Apply this patch series on top of it (or pull it from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ak/linux-mce-2.6.git mce3-32bitmerge ) then apply the following mce improvements series or git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ak/linux-mce-2.6.git mce3-improvements -Andi
